[split] EVA-y as Latin "-us" etc.
#6
Helmut,

thanks for the explanation.

One can always argue about the validity of statistics, but the problem with this one (the very high fraction of words ending in y ) is that it is so far off from any reasonable number for Latin words ending in -us or -um or even combined, that there is no chance for a match.

Just from memory, if the language were Italian, then a word-final -i  would be a lot closer in terms of frequency.
Maybe Marco remembers better.
